CPLR 3213: An Unheralded Procedural RemedyIn the eyes of these authors, CPLR 3213 is perhaps the most unheralded procedural device in New York state court practice. CPLR 3213 allows litigants to quickly and efficiently enforce instruments for the payment of money only or a previously rendered judgment.

New York Judges, Not Juries, Should Decide Whether to Pierce the VeilBrian D. Koosed and Anthony P. Badaracco, of K&L Gates, and Erica R. Iverson, formerly with the firm, examine the critical question of who should decide whether to pierce the corporate veil, judge or jury, noting that the question is anything but settled. Indeed, they write, it would be hard to find a question on which federal and state courts are more widely split. This is in large part because the historical roots of veil piercing reach into courts of both law and equity.

Privilege Logs—Divergent Approaches in New York and DelawareBrian D. Koosed and Anthony P. Badaracco write: In the last three years, the two leading state court forums for resolution of commercial disputes have responded to the rise in complexity of privilege logs in two very different ways, with the Delaware Court of Chancery requiring increasing rigor and New York's Commercial Division streamlining the process. This divergence therefore presents yet another factor for deal lawyers to consider in deciding, at the contract formation stage, where commercial disputes should be heard.
